The person is an open, adaptive system who uses coping skills to deal with stressors. Roy sees the environment as "all conditions, circumstances and influences that surround and affect the development and behaviour of the person". [ 1 ]

Adaptive expertise [3] [14] Adaptive expertise is the ability to apply knowledge and skills flexibly and innovatively in different situations. [15] [16] Unlike routine experts, who rely on well-practiced routines, [17] [18] adaptive experts can think critically and creatively, making them more effective in novel or complex scenarios.

Adaptations must benefit either an organism's chance of survival or reproduction to be considered adaptive, and are then passed down to the next generation through this process of natural selection. [1] Psychological adaptations are those adaptive traits that we consider cognitive or behavioral.
Each behavioural change theory or model focuses on different factors in attempting to explain behaviour change. Of the many that exist, the most prevalent are learning theories, social cognitive theory, theories of reasoned action and planned behaviour, transtheoretical model of behavior change, the health action process approach, and the BJ Fogg model of behavior change.
Adaptive and strategic function of behavior: Attachment behaviors and communication styles are developed through adaptation to danger and function to promote survival in a given relationship. Every DMM-attachment pattern involves both adaptive and maladaptive behaviors. A person using B3 "balanced" strategies may fail to predict danger or ...
Models that describe health behavior change can be distinguished in terms of the assumption whether they are continuum-based or stage-based. [7] A continuum (mediator) model claims that change is a continuous process that leads from lack of motivation via action readiness either to successful change or final disengagement.
Adaptive mentalization-based integrative treatment (AMBIT) is a novel adaptation [1] (by Dickon Bevington, Peter Fuggle, Liz Cracknell, Peter Fonagy, Eia Asen, Mary Target, Neil Dawson and Rabia Malik) of the theory of mentalization and practices of mentalization-based treatment to address the needs of chaotic, complex and multiply comorbid youth, via team-based (predominantly outreach ...
